    Defendants - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District
    Judge. (CA-96-648-R)
    Submitted:

    August 14, 1997

    Decided:

    August 20, 1997

    Before NIEMEYER, Circuit Judge, and BUTZNER and PHILLIPS, Senior


    Circuit Judges.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Rashid Qawi Al-Amin, Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district court's
    order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. 1983 (1994) complaint under
    28 U.S.C.A. 1915A(b)(1) (West Supp. 1997). We have reviewed the
    record and the district court's opinion and find that this appeal
    is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning
    of the district court. Al-Amin v. Deeds, No. CA-96-648-R (W.D. VA.
    Aug. 13, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the facts
    and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
    before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

    DISMISSED
